2009 Tour Step Ladder Info (Photo) Request

Rockhouse · 02-02-2010, 11:30 AM

The specs for my new 2009 Tour state it includes a "7' folding step ladder," which was among a few items previously removed (borrowed) when I took delivery and promised to be replaced by the dealer. I am not having any problems, and everything has been replaced, however, I think I need to know what the originally-intended ladder was, and where it stowed when not in use?

The dealer has merely provided a 7 footer from Camping World next door. I suspect that Winnebago had something else in mind.

Any photos available? I am in the dealers area for a couple of days.

This is the ladder on my 2007 Tour. It is only a 6-footer but yours should be of similar style.

Stored in driver side cubbie:

Folded:

We have the 07 version you your sister ship, the Ellipse. We got the ladder option and it stows in a factory installed swing out holder located in the road side storage bays. If the ladder was on your invoice it should include this compartment, not just the ladder.

I have a 09 Tour 40TD.
The ladder is the same as pictured above. I have been very impressed with it. Mine comes straight out from the electrical bay. Once you open the electical bay door on the drivers side and look straight across you can seen the brackets that hold the ladder on the other side. I can take pitures if you want but I don't know how to post them. I could e-mail them if you are interested.

Perfect. Exactly what I needed to know. Thank you all.

What is the max weight rating on the ladder?

I looked at a closeup photo of the label and it states 225 lb's and no higher than 4 feet standing height.

That wouldn't work for me. I use a 6 ft. HD Werner fiberglass that has steps on both sides of the legs. That way I can go up one side and down the other. Works great when washing windows outside. I mounted a small single arm paper towel holder on one side and a small plastic plant holder on the other to hold the bottle of glass cleaner. When traveling, it hangs off the back ladder using a CW ladder holder.
